- 2. Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praise worthy—think about such things
- 3. For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you.

- 5. Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.(NIV)
- 6. OVERCOMING WRONG THINKING IS ALL ABOUT THINKING RIGHT
- 7. A.) THINKING RIGHT IS THINKING GUIDED BY AND CONSISTENT WITH THE WORD OF GOD
- 8. Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbol on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.(NIV)
- 9. This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.(NIV)
- 10. B.) THINKING RIGHT IS ABOUT TAKING OUR THOUGHTS TO MAKE THEM OBEDIENT TO CHRIST… ( ANY THOUGHT THAT DISOBEYS CHRIST IS A WRONG THOUGHT )
- 11. We demolish arguments and very pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
- 12. THINKING RIGHT IS THINKING UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
- 13. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace

- 16. Luke 24:38 “ Why are you troubled and why do doubts rise in your minds?." Psalms 9:10. Those who know Your Name will trust in You, for You, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you MARK 9:23. “Everything is possible for him who believes.”
- 18. ROMANS 8:5-6 Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace;(NIV)
- 19. Romans12:19-21 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord. On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head." Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.(NIV)

"Everything is permissible for me"-- but I will not be mastered by anything.(NIV)
- 22. 1CORINTHIANS 10:23 "Everything is permissible"-- but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible"--but not everything is constructive. (NIV)

- 27. 1.) SET YOUR MIND TO GAIN UNDERSTANDING AND THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL DEVELOP IT IN YOU DANIEL 5:12 He did this because Daniel, whom the king called Belteshazzar, was found to have a keen mind and knowledge and understanding, and also the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles and solve difficult problems. Call for Daniel, and he will tell you what the writing means.”
